India vs England 2nd Test: India Probable Playing XI, Key Changes, and Edgbaston Stats Team India are getting ready in Birmingham for the second Test against England, which starts on July 2. After losing the first match, they’ll be hoping to turn things around. Assistant coach Ryan ten Doeschate spoke to the media before the game and hinted that there could be a few changes in the playing XI. While he didn’t give away much, it looks like the team is thinking about making some smart tweaks to get back on track in the series.

Shubman Gill-led Team India are expected to make at least two changes for the second Test. Shardul Thakur is likely to be left out, while Jasprit Bumrah may also be rested as part of workload management, even though he's fully fit, as confirmed by assistant coach Ryan ten Doeschate. Another change could see Yashasvi Jaiswal moved from the slip cordon after dropping four catches in the first Test, with the team looking to improve their fielding setup for the crucial match.

India’s fast-bowling all-rounder Nitish Kumar Reddy is set to replace Shardul Thakur in the playing XI for the second Test. The team is likely to go with two spinners, and Kuldeep Yadav has a strong chance of being picked alongside Ravindra Jadeja or Washington Sundar.
